Z Head Case

Carlos Zambrano, first class head case, has been suspended by the Cubs for basically being a jackass again.
He's argued and fought with teammates before and he did it again today. After giving up 4 first inning runs to the White Sox, he got into an altercation with Derrick Lee in the dugout.
His temper tantrums are getting tiresome. I supposed it is alright when a player snaps from time to time, so long he doesn't go after teammates.
For example, his own manager Lou Piniella has had his share of tantrums but not at his teammates or players. Paul O'Neill was another guy with a temper but he directed it at water coolers and not teammates.
Zambrano has turned into an excuse maker and remains a bad teammate. He's an embarrassment to the Cubs and deserves to sit out a while. Z needs a time out. A long one.
The White Sox by the way have now won 10 in a row after their 6-0 beating of the young bears. No temper tantrums lately from the South Siders, particularly Ozzie Guillen who must have enjoyed Zambrano's antics.
